Fr. Larry s Corner of the Bulletin I hate traveling by plane. I hate all the little details, restrictions, discomfort, delays all the things that can go wrong. In our Gospel today Jesus is issuing his travel instructions to his Apostles. First he gives them authority over unclean spirits, a sharing in the authority the Father has given him for the work of spreading the good news that the reign of evil is over and the reign of God is beginning. Then Jesus gets practical: take nothing but a walking stick to be used in climbing hills, driving off wild animals, or pushing away snakes found on the paths. No food, no sack to hold extra clothes not even a second tunic or to carry off anything from the towns you visit and no money! Permission granted to wear sandals! Finally, when you get to a place, do not look for the comfortable lodging take what comes first and be content there. The focus is clear: stay on mission God s Kingdom is at hand repent and believe! And show it in Collection for July 1, 2018 Collection.. $6434.00 Maintenance.$1855.00 action: deliver the sick and possessed from whatever burdens them. If people don t like the message? Move on. Over two thousand years later, Jesus continues to call ordinary folk. Back then it was a bunch of fishermen, a tax collector, a political activist. Now it s workers from every way of life, every profession and job. People raising families, singles, the elderly anyone willing to confess that God is really at work in our world, that evil will not have the last word. It s up to us to keep our eyes on the mission Jesus doesn t have another plan! God bless!

a r s 2 0 e 1 8 Y e v i f 1983-Celebrating Thirty From The Ground Up After the property was cleared, civil engineer Cy Dufrene was commissionned to plot the elevation of the property at a cost of $1,000. Father Emil determined the slab for the church and all future buildings would be two feet above the highest point of land. Later when the area was inundated with three one in a hundred year storms of eleven, twelve, and thirteen inches of rain, not one drop of water entered a building!
